Anti Money Laundering

Today, June 3, 2024, DSI is launching the DSI Anti Money Laundering (AML) register. With this we take an important step towards increasing the confidence and competence of professionals in the AML sector. This initiative is the result of a close collaboration between (AML) professionals from the financial sector, leading educators and DSI.

“With the launch of this new DSI Register Integrity, we offer a uniform solution for the registration of knowledge and integrity of AML professionals working in the financial sector. Certified professionals are thus demonstrably competent”

DSI accredited trainers: VU and ACAMS

To complete registration, AML professionals must have completed training at a DSI-accredited training provider. The DSI Accreditation Committee, in cooperation with the experts from the DSI Compliance Professional Advisory Committee, has granted accreditation to two training institutions: the VU Amsterdam and ACAMS. Other training providers may follow in the near future.

Floris Mreijen, director-director of DSI, together with Tom Loonen, professor and FEC-Risk Expert training director, signs the DSI accreditation for the FEC-Risk Expert training program at VU Amsterdam.

VU Amsterdam: FEC Risk Expert

“This accreditation is an important recognition from the DSI Accreditation Commission that our program meets tough quality criteria,” stated Tom Loonen, program director FEC-Risk Expert VU Amsterdam. “We are therefore pleased that our students can be directly admitted to this register.”
